The article describes a series of activities that are common on teaching pitch representation. These activities constitute just one example of so many others that circulate in music education, where, based on indisputable assumptions that are based on music theory, teaching strategies are replicated that are authoritarian since they are imposed as unique truths repressing others ways of representing, listening, relating, ultimately, of thinking and building knowledge.Downloads
